6. What are the steps of the scientific method?

Observation - you first must see the event
Hypothesis - you make an education guess as to what you are seeing.
Experimentation - This is the hard part, you must set up an experiment to test your hypothesis.
Theory - If that experiment validates your hypothesis, then it becomes a working theory.
Law - If under all conditions, the theory appears to be valid, then perhaps it might be elevated to a law.
